Oops meant to say I started out on an old TARGET saw. Ryobi 's not the best in terms of power and durablty. also meant to say $600 maybe less. the price has gone down on this saw, but still a well made and engineered tool.
Well, First off I would check it to make the arbor shaft runs 'true' and square to the rails. I know you can adjust the table. and you can always replace a warped blade.(the best saw in the world is'nt worth junk if the blade sucks. if everything works good and all the parts are there. and it isn't over 18 months old, I would offer around $600 maybe more. When I got them, $950 was the lowest around-new always get the stand. I started out on a old MK, good saw, but night and day with this one.
I've worked for about 5 tile setters, 2 of them masters at their trade, 2 hacks ( i quit them) and one average. this saw Rocks I love it it will do almost all of your cuts. large tile sink and toilet cuts-no problem, fine shower drain detail-again no problem. spray curtain and drip pan great for residential homes where keeping it clean is a must. well worth the money
@Bowfinger6383 What could i expect to pay for a lightly used saw like this? I have seen them for $725 new which doesnt seem to bad but i would like to find a used saw since i am kinda just starting out tiling. i have basically only used a $75 cheapie that sucked. I have used a Rigid 10" that was very nice i thought and then recenlty bought a $300 ryobi that was complete crap. I had better luck with the $75 saw then that unsquare cutting piece of crap. Thank god home depot took it back!!
Nice saw. I use a 24'' bridge saw. I prefer pulling the blade over pushing the tile, plus I find it easier to keep a close eye on small detail cuts when the tile stays close and in one place instead of slowly moving further away. It's all just preferance, but the array of handy features this saw has definately makes me want to give it a try.
This thing scares me haha. I was doing tile work for a table top in my woodshop class and I lost grip of the thing you push and it shot all the way back putting my hands like a quarter inch away from the blade. (Works good though)
Nice saw, like to see it cut first.

It cuts good. 1 1/2 hp is great. New blade and it will rip through porcelain like its slate.
